A New Take on the Bat

So, I am a self-confessed podcast junkie. I listen to them all the time and, if you have followed this blog for a while, most likely know my preferred programs of choice. If you were paying attention, you know that I mentioned a few of them last week.

I did happen to stumble across a new one that I think is well worth recommending.

Batman: The Audio Adventures is the brainchild of Saturday Night writer Dennis McNicholas. A strange hybrid of 60’s television Batman and the more recent Batman: The Animated series, this is a great holiday gift for all fans of the Caped Crusader.  Writer/Director McNicholas has created a strange hybrid of radio drama, comedy and podcast that is totally original.  Several storylines thread through each episode and include newscasts, commercials and even nightclub acts. Jeffrey Wright is as great as you would expect as Batman and rounding out the cast are an eclectic combination of Saturday Night Live cast members and other television and movie notables.

Notables besides Wright are narrator Chris Parnell and Melissa Villasenor as Robin (Yes, you read it correctly), and Brent Spiner as the Joker.

There is a downside, if you want more than the first two chapters, you will have to subscribe to HBO Max.  I am sure purists will find something to squabble about. Based on the creator’s intent above, I think they hit the bullseye.
